Some in our club are facing relievers. Others are facing starting pitchers. Also doesn't look like they fixed the keeper issue yet (not reflecting 0.6 factor)
I'm starting to think that giving us keepers was a bad decision. It's caused nothing but problems and everyone's expectations of their performance has far surpassed the reality. Hopefully it changes as they increase their max. Currently, I would have rather they let us transfer our ballpark investment & other resources.
My understanding is that it's the latter. It's the total increase over the base "max". They are not added together. Just have no clue what the base is...
In the beta, you need to enter in a backup email address just like any new user. Don't search for your 18 account email. Your new account doesn't have to be the same as your 18 account (mine isn't). As long as 18 & 19 are logged into game centre/iOS equivalent, your VIP will become automatically linked once you create a…
Yep. My Boggs is currently max 318 (Lowrie @315) and will increase at some point during the year. My top new batter is 304 (4 others @298) and 2x pitchers 300+ (305 & 300). Those will not increase. That's a definite plus for keepers. However XP doesn't flow like wine and keepers are never bonus players (but do qualify for…
@dustyhunks The LL & RR of Edgar and Davis are complementary and definitely a bonus over the other two. IMHO they'd be worth carrying over considering your alternatives, despite my previous comment about positions.
Keepers are like wringers in a beer league. Any of them will be superior to the rest of your new opening day lineup and will instantly make a difference to your team. Well before the all star break, most of us will find the luxury tax on keepers too high for our market. New players will start popping up and become just as…
@tocopan18 thnx for chiming in. You have some valid points and I respect them all. There are many ways to approach the game and everyone will do what's right for them. As far as levelling, I actually didn't do it as flippantly as I implied. Before going silver, I saved enough XP to ensure that I could instantly cap almost…
Advantage/Disadvantages seem to be the same as '18. I went gold because it's nice and shiny! :) It's also a bit of an ego boost while I watch all you Americans struggle for the first weeks before catching up.LOL
Rizzo over Carpenter. Personally not a fan of the blowout skill. You won't have many blowout games initially. Rizzo's R skill will be active more often.
Don't take Molitor. Love him in real life but you need the DH spot for bonus players, extra OF and/or infielders. You'll regret his lack of versatility w/in days. Can't go wrong with either of the other two. I'd probably go with Posey simply because he's a catcher. Baez's is great but Posey could stay in your lineup for…
@Babybombers9 I made the plunge. Know of two others that are now silver. Problem is that my bonus games and tournaments are stuck and I can't continue them. Same for a Match game. Looks like I'll be back to playing WOH in 18 today.
Looks like they are just using the 18 players in this beta release. VIP lounge's most recent Wall of fame battle is from the end of September. I imagine they are waiting for the last of the free agents to sign (i.e. Harper) before doing a massive switch over to the updated players. Remember this isn't the full release yet.
@Houmy, I'm ready to go silver. To chicken to be the first. Don't want to be caught in the "leveled up too quickly" group like '18. These are the top players I have Jeffress is max 278 Blackmore is max 264 Ross Strippling is max 271 Whit Merrifield is mas 262 Brantley max 258 all others <200
If anyone wants screen shots or has questions let me know. Haven't really posted on the forums before but I'm not a troll. Play on a top 10 club with a few regulars here that can vouch for me.
It's still quite glitchy. Had a game last night that I lost in 9 innings but it went to extra innings anyways. Game wouldn't end despite the other team always scoring more. Finally had to resign in the 14th inning. Lots of other little issues too. Still very much a work in progress. Guess they figure us Canadians will be…
I'm playing it on Android. Took a while to find it in the play store. Instead of searching by title, I had to click on GLU's profile and scroll through all their games before finding it.
